I can't get my factory unlocked (direct from Samsung) note8 to connect to either of my Samsung smart TV's. When I attempted to go into the "smart view 2.0" app it would never open. Just, kept crashing. I uninstalled "smart view 2.0" app. I went into both the play store and the "galaxy app" and all that was available was a "smart view" app that does not have the same icon. I went ahead and downloaded it, but still no luck. I cannot and have not been able to connect once.Sat, 14 Oct 2017 22:06:34 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/185716#M3279userrLJMnBpO6C2017-10-14T22:06:34ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/188620#M3280

hey everyone, I think I have figured this out. I was also having trouble connecting, it kept telling me I needed to connect to the same network, even though I already had. The issue is you need to have the "smart view" setting on. Swipe from the top to bring down the pull-down menu, press the smart view button. This should bring your phone screen onto the TV screen. Next, click the blue button and click pause sharing. You should now be able to use your phone as a remote control. it's kindve annoying that I have to go through this step every time, I'd like to just pull down from the top and click use as remote control like I did with my s7. also that blue circle is annoying on my screen. does anyone know how to use the remote without having smart view on?Sun, 03 Dec 2017 04:22:59 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/223300#M3282userLC61AIeHCM2017-12-03T04:22:59ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/225585#M3283
<P>I can screen mirror and use the remote control for the tv on my phone but my Note 8 won't allow me to watch the tv on my screen. It was working a few weeks ago and now I keep being told to make sure I am on the same network.

<P>I am back.&nbsp; Last night I used the pull-down menu from the top of my screen (the one you pull down to see the screen brightness slider and the icons for your most-used settings like Wi-Fi, etc.) and pulled down the double-line bar to see more of my settings icons.&nbsp; On the second screen, I saw the icon for 'Smart View'.&nbsp; It was greyed-out, so I selected it again to turn it ON (now blue).&nbsp; That was part of the solution, but at that point, 'Smart View' was still not connecting to my TV.&nbsp; Do not assume that opening the 'Smart View' app, and seeing your TV's name listed means that 'Smart View' is ON.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The second part was that I had to go into my Samsung TV's settings and tell it to connect to my phone.&nbsp; It had done this right after I bought the phone (although I do not recall if I set it up or if it automatically did it for me), but somehow it lost the connection.&nbsp; So I saw my phone listed twice already, both as 'Connected', but I still could not use 'Smart View'.&nbsp; I had to search for devices again, and my phone came up again as a third device.&nbsp; Now my phone was listed 3 times.&nbsp; I selected the phone again, but I selected the newly found one; not one of the existing two.&nbsp; I had to then confirm the connection on my TV.&nbsp; Once I did, it all worked again.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So the trick is to make sure 'Smart View' is turned ON in your phone settings AND to go into the TV settings and reconnect your phone, even if it shows your device already.&nbsp;&nbsp; I hope this helps.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P>Thu, 14 Dec 2017 18:18:35 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/231074#M3286userV9JlDkiqVY2017-12-14T18:18:35ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/231076#M3287

<P>&nbsp; &nbsp;Uninstall AD BLOCK or any popup blockers is my advice.&nbsp; This fixed my note 8 smart view connection immdeiately and as well I also recomend if you have a fire stick to unplug it for 30 seconds.</P><P>Thanks allot I have been working on this for 3 days lol was starting to miss my 8+ but now I realized it was actually my fault so anyone who has ad block or ad block for Samsung browser remove it and smart view will work</P>Wed, 21 Feb 2018 03:35:36 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/272028#M3305Rambo19812018-02-21T03:35:36ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/283782#M3306
<P>Same problem for me. Contacted support they know nothing. My old Lenovo!!! works perfectly with both Smart view TVs. Note 8 is a HUGE disappointment. No support at all!!! P.s. do not have any Ad blocks and tried everything people write above. Samsung, you stole few days of my life already. Will never pay for Samsung again!!!</P>Wed, 07 Mar 2018 21:05:11 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/283782#M3306userNfcbng9S0A2018-03-07T21:05:11ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/283791#M3307

<P>I believe it is definitely a bug in an Android update.</P><P>&nbsp;I had a Note 8 which connected fine to my TV with a Microsoft Miracast dongle until a system update after which it would not connect at all. I broke that phone and got another Note 8 and the exact same thing occurred, it connected fine until a system update and now will not connect at all.</P>Fri, 18 May 2018 22:59:16 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/328474#M3314user1vXfCqyr2n2018-05-18T22:59:16ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/336399#M3315

<P><SPAN>Alright...so I have the same issue others are having but I am hoping this will give some good information to the folks at Samsung to help narrow down why this is happening.&nbsp; I have 3 Samsung TV's all equipped with screen mirroring.&nbsp; My main tv in the living room was new at the end of 2016 and the ones in my bar in the basement are a 3-4 years older.&nbsp; My note 5 always worked like a charm on all 3 tv's.&nbsp; My note 8 started out working fine all on 3 tv's and it still works on my newest tv just fine.&nbsp; That said the 2 in my bar it either wont connect at all or if I am lucky enough to connect it only stays connected for a minute or less and has been doing this for many months.&nbsp; The last 2 updates have not helped fix it either.&nbsp; I have cleared my cache restarted it prior to connecting.&nbsp; I have also played with turning the phone visibility on and off with no change.&nbsp; Its very frustrating as the 2 in my bar are where I use it most to play music when people are over so now I am without.&nbsp; Samsung...I hope you see this and are working on a solution.&nbsp; This feature was a big selling point for me!&nbsp;</SPAN></P>Fri, 28 Sep 2018 14:45:28 GMThttps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/400057#M3320userku9yPc7exN2018-09-28T14:45:28ZRe: Smart view not working on my Note 8https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Note8/Smart-view-not-working-on-my-Note-8/m-p/402434#M3321
<P>I had same problem just fixed it! Hope it works for you.&nbsp; Press on the smart view , but hold on to it , it takes you to a screen that tells you, about smart view,&nbsp; press on that, once you get there you will have a choice to [force stop], press on that.

<P>Get to the about phone part in the settings. Click software information. Then click on build number 7 times, this should turn on developer options. Then from developer options menu,turn on authorize wireless display, and check the boxes inside that option.
